After 9 month of resting and reconnecting with family and friends (after graduation), I am excited to share with everyone that starting this new year I am officially a faculty member in Universiti Putra Malaysia Bintulu Campus. 🥳 Looking forward to doing research and career in academia ☺️

BMC has published one of the last papers of @IMAFungus on a joint effort of Brazilian mycologists, who gave a nice overview on their edible mushrooms. Several papers will soon be published by @PENSOFT in January (new homepage imafungus.pensoft.net)

Diseased banana cut open, inside is a hard fibrous red mass along with normal banana fruit

Diseased banana cut open, inside is a hard fibrous red mass along with normal banana fruit

Sadly I didn't get to eat my banana for lunch today. Happily I got something new to isolate from! 🧪 If this is caused by a fungus I'll soon find out. #mycology #plantpathology

Had my research published recently!
Sphaerulina may look like Septoria leaf spot infection but it is definitely a different fungi!

Advice: do not publish in "Frontiers In" journals or MDPI family journals unless you really have no other choice.

Officially a PhD holder. Should really start looking for jobs now I guess 😅

#TaxonomistAppreciationDay
3 years ago I thought fungal taxonomy was impossible because there are so many to discover! But I realise that every small contribution matters 😊

We use the phrase "social butterfly" to describe a very social person, but are butterflies actually social? I thought many of them are solitary creatures. Or is it we think they are social due to their showy appearances?

Almost at the end of my PhD program and it does makes me wonder how one chooses to enter academia as faculty member or become a postdoc researcher? 😶

Got a new paper published! Small accomplishments counts I guess :)
A new species of Septoria on hemp.

I guess I successfully defended my research.

2 sentences in my manuscript required 45 hours of data analysis.
45 hours of analysis needed 6 weeks in the wet lab, itself galvanized from months of field work and YEARS of other researchers' insights.

Science takes time. It takes people...

Also, remember to wear sunscreen during field season.

5.25" floppy disk

😂 not so long ago, *submitting* sequences to GenBank meant sending them on 5.25" floppy disks 👀 from germany to the USA via airmail 📨

It feels funny when you feel pressured to graduate on time for PhD. What is on time even?

Late night travel is ok. Not arriving late night. The latter is not ok. 😭
